+Note that if you start the default try job using `@bors try`, it will skip building several `dist` components and running post-optimization tests, to make the build duration shorter. If you want to execute the full build as it would happen before a merge, add an explicit `try-job` pattern with the name of the default try job (currently `dist-x86_64-linux`).
